Discount Workouts Giveaway!

I am excited to tell you about Discount Workouts. Not only to introduce this great website but also give you the chance to win a DVD workout of your own. I stumbled on this site through a Google search for new workouts. Discount Workouts has been around for nearly three years and providing access to great workouts at reasonable prices.

Each DVD is packaged in a plastic slip cover. Nothing fancy, but who really needs it? It's what is on the DVD that is most important. Each DVD features a warm up, workout and cool down. I like the way these are filmed actually. There are no bells and whistles so to speak. It's simply an instructor and you. Each DVD has two works so you can alternate them on days if you wish.

The only negative that I really can say for these DVD's is the recording of the sound. They are pretty raw recordings. The Kickboxing Advanced (which I love and will tell you about in a minute) had sound issues as the instructor got excited and was yelling at me to give 100%. So I don't recommend kicking up the surround sound while blasting your fat. Just use your regular TV volume and you should be fine.

The Advanced Kickboxing DVD was awesome and for only $7.98 you can't beat it. If this tells you anything, my husband burned more calories doing this workout than on a P90X DVD. That's a good workout. Unfortunately for my husband, after one workout and a vacation to the woods, he picked up poison ivy which is horrible for him. He had to stop working out as to not sweat and spread the poison ivy. Honestly, all he has talked about is getting back after that Kickboxing DVD.

On the Discount Workout site you are able to select whichever DVD workout you are interested in, and check out a 30-45 second clip of that workout. It features a few different moves and gives you enough time to decide if you are going to like the instructor or not, which is a huge thing for me. I really enjoyed browsing through the workouts.

Another DVD that I was able to try was the Core Strength Vol. #2. I was so impressed with the fact I didn't feel like I was doing a "killer" workout, but turns out later that day, I was. No sweat pouring down, a little heavy breathing but nothing I couldn't pull off at 6 AM before getting ready for work. (These DVD's do require a strength/balance ball). I was so sore after the first day of the Core Strength I couldn't believe it. I now use this DVD religiously as part of my routine. Core Strength DVD's are on sale for $7.98.

The last DVD I received was Advanced Weight Training. Again another series on sale for $7.98. This workout has the instructor using weights with a bar. As a lot of us don't have that at home, and if your like me and have the power blocks, you can still manage this workout with using individual weights as well. Just follow the instructor and give it all you can and you will see great results.

Some other workouts available are Pilates, Yoga, Step Aerobics, Cycling, Treadmill, and Stretch. You should be able to find one that is right for you.

If you want to dive in and get all of these DVD's, you can purchase the Ultimate Collections. These consist of ALL the Beginner workouts for $98.50 instead of the $250 it would cost to buy them all. Or the Advanced workouts for the same $98.50, which figures to $2.75 per workout.

Then there is the Ultimate Collection which comes with all the DVD's they have to offer at $169.99 instead of $450. This figures out to be $2.65 per workout as there are two workouts per DVD. You can't join a gym and take a class for that price. Why not bring the gym instructor to your living room for much less?
